A Bit About My Artwork

My paintings examine the passing of time and the day-to-day struggles and triumphs that move life forward.

Fascinated with both nature and urban environments, I attempt to capture delicate details and cycles of transformation that often occur in everyday moments. Buildings are torn down, branches suddenly bloom, objects are left behind, and people come and go. I find strength in the ongoing cycles of renewal and resiliency. I'm addressing the fleeting feelings of isolation and comfort that can result in these periods of change and stasis, and the sense of wonder that the world and its movements give me.

I combine multiple artistic mediums in my paintings while experimenting with collage using recycled vintage magazines and photography.

I'm a mother, a self-taught artist, and a perfectionist. I paint because it gives me hope. My thoughts and worries are organized into a patchwork of patterns.
